Why Storing Rugs at Home Often Leads to Hidden Damage

Storing rugs at home often causes slow damage you may not notice right away. Basements hold moisture, garages face wide temperature swings, and closets limit airflow. Humidity can lead to mildew and odor buildup, especially in wool and cotton rugs.

Folding a rug weakens the foundation and leaves deep creases that are hard to remove. Moths and carpet beetles also target natural fibers while rugs sit undisturbed. Professional storage avoids these risks by keeping rugs clean, properly rolled, elevated off the floor, and kept in stable indoor conditions.

How Our Area Rug Storage Works

At Teasdale Fenton Cleaning & Property Restoration, every rug receives individual attention from inspection through return so it stays protected during storage.

Step 1

Initial Inspection

Before storage, each rug is inspected for damage, stains, and special care requirements. This helps us select the safest treatment for the rug’s fibers and dyes and gives it proper attention.

Step 2

Cleaning and Preparation

We remove dirt, dust, allergens, and stains using fiber-safe cleaning solutions. Rugs are fully dried to prevent mold and preserve their natural texture and color before storage.

Step 3

Rolling and Padding

Rugs are carefully rolled, never folded, to preserve their shape. Between each rug, we place acid-free tissue paper or cotton sheets to prevent color transfer and friction during storage.

Step 4

Climate-Controlled Storage

Your rugs are stored in a secure, monitored facility where temperature and humidity remain stable. This protects rugs from moisture damage, pest activity, and fiber deterioration over time.

Step 5

Regular Monitoring

During storage, we check rugs periodically to confirm their condition and address any potential issues promptly. This proactive approach adds an extra layer of protection for your valuable textiles.

Step 6

Safe Retrieval

Before return, we review the original inspection notes and carefully unroll each rug. A final check confirms the rug’s condition so it is ready for placement in your home.

Rug Storage Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

How are rugs stored safely?

Rugs are rolled and separated with acid-free tissue or cotton sheets, then kept in a secure facility that shields them from sunlight, moisture, and pests. This preserves their shape, colors, and overall quality while in storage.

Can all types of rugs be stored?

Yes. We accept Persian, Oriental, handmade, and area rugs of all sizes, including delicate and antique pieces. Each rug is treated carefully to keep its fibers, colors, and patterns intact while in storage.

Do rugs need to be cleaned before storage?

Yes. Dirt and oils left in a rug can attract pests and cause fiber wear during storage. Cleaning removes soil and organic residue so the rug stays fresh and stable while stored. Proper drying is also important to prevent odor or mildew from developing over time.

How long can rugs be stored?

Rugs can be stored for a season, during a move, or for longer periods, depending on your needs. We check on each rug regularly to keep it in great condition and ready for use when it’s returned.

What if a rug has a pet stain or odor?

Rugs with pet stains or odors are treated before or during storage. Our cleaning and deodorizing process removes unwanted smells and spots, leaving your rug clean, fresh, and ready to use when it is returned.
